Ironclad Group Chat: Red and Black Lists Engraved with Heroic Epics

March 7th exclaimed in alarm, "Twice...isn't that already very dangerous? Ugh, I don't want to turn back into an ice cube drifting in space!"

Xing's exceptionally high emotional intelligence told her it was time to reassure March 7: "It's [Pretty Girl Ice Cube]."

"Now that you mention it, the scene doesn't seem so bleak anymore, does it?"

March 7 blinked, then exclaimed, "Oh no, I don't want to turn back into that 'Pretty Girl Ice Cube' drifting in space again!"

[Qingque: Is this the important point?]

[Star: This is what they call returning to one's roots.]

[March 7: ...In that case, how about we put you back in the space station's computer? (⇀‸↼‶)]

Dan Heng said with maturity and composure, "In other words, this must be taken into account when choosing the next destination."

"That's right." Walter offered several possible options: "I've already checked the star map. The worlds relatively close to us are [Ocean Planet] Lusaka and [Agate World] Merustain."

"As for which one to choose as our destination, that will have to be decided by vote..."

Before he could finish speaking, a voice that shouldn't have been there suddenly rang out.

"...Or, you might also like to hear my suggestion."

[Star: What's that sound? A space ghost?!]

Black Swan strolled out of a bedroom door, making no mention of her secret visit, and greeted everyone quite naturally: "We meet again, everyone."

"It's...it's you?!" March 7th covered her mouth, staring at the automatically opening door behind her. "How did you get into my room...?"

Black Swan chuckled, "What a lovely room, Miss March—just like you."

[Star: So adept at this, looks like you've done similar things before. Fare evasion and smuggling, huh? Do you think the train is a public toilet, where you can just come and go as you please? My development ability is extremely valuable; a fine of one trillion credits!]

[Black Swan: Little one, don't be so petty. Besides, the train hasn't even departed yet, so none of these accusations are valid.]

[Star: That makes sense. That would be a 2 trillion yuan fine for trespassing.]

[Dahlia: There's always one that suits you.]

[Black Swan: ...Little guy, it's a waste of your talent that you're not working for the company.]

Xing crossed her arms and pouted, "I knew someone would be missing when we said goodbye..."

Walter's interest was piqued by the Black Swan's words: "Remember... regardless of how you managed to board the train undetected, your 'suggestion'..."

"I overheard everything about how the train obtains fuel." Black Swan put a finger to her lips, a smug smile on her face.

She was worried that her silver tongue wouldn't be able to persuade these people, but now it seems...

Hmph, heaven is on my side!

"I originally just wanted to chat with you all and see if we could reach a cooperation agreement—but now it seems that my proposal might be your lifeline."

Dan Heng addressed the uninvited guest, the Black Swan, in a businesslike manner: "Just say what you have to say. Depending on the content, we may also ask you to get off the bus."

The black swan didn't seem to care at all, and even said meaningfully, "A descendant of the [Immortal]... You really are a charming little dragon, especially with that murky memory of yours."

[March 7th: That sounds familiar. You've been watching Dan Heng for a while now, and tonight is the first time you've invited him out?]

[Fireworks: Sniff sniff~~ I smell fun! Let's dig out all the secrets of Cold Noodle Little Dragon and see just how many bowls of cold noodles he can eat!]

[Black Tower: There's another secret? The train certainly seems to produce a lot of talented people.]

[Star: We have everything here except normal people (proudly)!]

"Let's not get sidetracked."

Black Swan cleared her throat. Although the secrets of the train were almost overwhelming, she still understood the priorities.

"If the Star Train urgently needs a special pioneering journey to replenish its engine's [power]—"

She patiently and persuasively said, "Have you ever considered what your destination might be? A world that even the famous Akivilli never reached..."

"If you could lay a brand new galactic track in the universe, then trains would probably never have to worry about energy again."

March 7th's eyes widened in astonishment: "To explore a world even Akivilli hadn't been to... is that really possible?"

The train crew immediately understood.

Although black swans clearly have their own selfish motives, this is indeed what they urgently need.

Walter said, "Go on, Memory One. What kind of world is the destination you speak of?"

The black swan walked to the porthole, gazed at the starry night over Pinocchio, and said softly, "A world whose existence is unknown to the vast majority of people in the universe, a world that is difficult to observe from the outside and can only be reflected in the realm of memories..."

"A world bound and intertwined by three destinies, its fate uncertain..."

[Bai E: This... sounds more and more familiar. Could it be!]

[Star: Masaka!]

Everyone was startled, and in a flash they realized what was happening.

In their memory, the only place that fits this description was one they had just heard of not long ago, and one they would probably never forget for the rest of their lives.

The black swan, feigning sophistication in the cramped carriage, turned around and revealed the turning point in the fate of the universe: "The Eternal Land, Onpharos."

Her words were soft, but to everyone in the world, they carried immense weight.

[Bai E: As expected!]

[Star: So the train was able to identify the ancients' hidden protocol from the vast sea of ​​stars because it was guided by black swans?]

[March 7th: Wow, this is a really big achievement!]

Everyone immediately looked at the black swan with newfound respect.

If it weren't for her quick thinking, Lai Gushi might have been able to quietly complete the coronation of the Iron Tomb, and at that time, let alone forming the Galactic Alliance.

In the entire universe, even the dead don't know how they died.

[Fu Xuan: Oh? So, in a sense, the Black Swan, like the White Calamity who stubbornly held on, is an indispensable part of saving the universe from the Iron Tomb?]

[Yao Guang: That's right. Even if someone else sends a notification later due to the train's fuel problem, the train will still be unable to help Onpharos due to energy shortages. It can be said that the Black Swan seized the last window of opportunity to save Onpharos and even the universe!]

[Silver Wolf: This timing is absolutely brilliant.]

[Feixiao: I knew it! Anyone with an SSS rating on the leaderboard is no pushover! Now it seems that facing Huang Quan was just a minor mishap in Miss Black Swan's life, nothing to worry about.]

[Crydella: Lady Black Swan, I have decided to bestow upon you the title of... Lord of the Assassins.]

Inside the fortune-telling shop, a warm feeling welled up in Black Swan's heart.

The word-of-mouth has turned around, everyone!

Looking at the frame of the light screen again, she couldn't help but straighten her back.

"Mmm~~!"

At the same time, the light screen displayed new images.

The train is parked in front of the Möbius strip.

Himeko said to Hoshi and Danheng, who were about to depart, "In order to provide you with the maximum support, we plan to separate a car from the Starry Sky Train and use it as a landing capsule. After landing, it can also serve as a... safe house."
